Fats Domino, pseudonimo di Antoine Dominique Domino Jr. (1928-2017), è stato un leggendario cantautore e pianista statunitense. Nato a New Orleans, Louisiana, Fats Domino ha dominato la scena musicale americana degli anni '50 e '60 con il suo stile unico di rock and roll influenzato dal boogie woogie e dalla musica blues. Domino era noto per le sue performance energiche al pianoforte e per la sua voce calda e rassicurante. I suoi successi più famosi includono "Blueberry Hill", "Ain't That a Shame" e "I'm Walkin'". Domino ha venduto oltre 100 milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo, diventando uno dei musicisti più influenti della storia del rock and roll.
